How can I help alleviate my bloating due to difficulty passing gas?
I have tried all anti-gas remedies. The problem isn’t that I have too much gas it is that I cant pass it for hours at a time, especially at night, which causes much bloating and discomfort. It is so uncomfortable that I can’t sleep when it happens! I have tried anti-gas pills, IBS remedies from my GI doctor, peppermint, acupuncture, etc.. The doctor said that my problem is unusual.

Have you cut things out of your diet? There’s gotta be something in there that you don’t agree with. Also, did you try the gas remedies before or after you eat? I would try taking them before, if you haven’t already. Try systematically cutting things out of your diet… When you stop eating something WRITE IT DOWN along with the results. This can include drinks. When you remove something from your diet, give it an honest shake – 2 to 3 days. I used to have horrible painful gas, and it turned out to be caused by red meat. I have since started a diet that doesn’t include red meat (eating mostly chicken and fish now) and I’ve been feeling a LOT better. Your symptoms sound very similar to people at are lactose intolerant, or gluten intolerant . Have you tried cutting out dairy or wheat from your diet?
